a. Specific word instruction
Specific word instruction, or teaching individual words, can deepen students’ knowledge of word meaning. In-depth knowledge of word meaning can help students understand what they are hearing or reading. It also can help them use word accurately in speaking and writing.
b. Extended instruction that promotes active engagement with vocabulary improves word learning.

Students learn new words better when they encounter them often and in various contexts. The more children see, hear, and work specific words, the better they seem to learn them. When teachers provide extended instruction that promotes active engagement, they give student repeated exposure to new words.

It is result is around 80 percent can see and understand. That used because the student easier to understanding and student fill enjoy in processes that study English language. But it all appropriate with condition of student and also facility which insufficiently backs up and available many students that hard to been managed.
In addition, in order to reach the instruction purposes above, the teaching process must belong to the effective and interisting strategies. The strategies are the soul of the teaching activities.

“Secara umum masalah yang sering kali saya alami ketika mengajar bahasa inggris terutama dalam bentuk kosa kata adalah pronounsiation siswa dan juga siswa yang malas dalam menghafal. Dan sebagian siswa malu dalam menggunakan bahasa Inggris dalam kehidupan mereka karena mereka menganggap pengucapan yang mereka gunakan salah. Dan untuk memecahkan masalah itu semua saya menggunakan strategi mencari arti lain dari sebuah kosa kata dan game dan menghapal. Dari ketiga strategi saya saya terapkan itu maka
siswa lebih mudah mengerti”. 9
In common problem while teach English language especially in vocabulary form is pronunciation and also student which lazy deep memorizes. And many student shy use English language in environment they opinion if pronunciation is wrong. And for solves that problem my all utilizes strategy to look for other mean of one vocabulary, game and memorization. Of three she strategy applies it therefore easier students more understand.
Based on the Chapter II page 29 pronunciation are the sound may not correspond to the spelling, students may have difficuly knowing how many syllables the word is broken up into, it is hard to know which syllable is stressed, a speaker of a particular langauge might have difficuly with certain sounds, some words with different spelling and meaning are pronounced the same. And than many students lazy for study and shy if ask to speak.
Based on explain from interview above if in teaching English vocabulary not only used just one strategy but also used some strategy should can to able as teacher.

This is how the linguist David Wilkins described the importance of vocabulary as qouted by Tornbury. It means that someone can speak English although less in grammar during the key words is easy to be understood. In the other side, someone can not say something if they never know vocabulary, means that they can not communicate well. Other opinion, Rivers in Davit Nunan argued that the of an adequate vocabulary is essential for successful second language use because without extencial vocabulary, we will be unable to use the structures and function we may have learner for comprehensible communication. Lewis argues that vocabulary should be at the center of language teaching because language consists of grammatical lexis, not lexicalized grammar.
A number of ways of conceptualizing strategies in language teaching have been made. Various attempts have also been made to explore more systematically the relationship between theory and practice within a method. A knowledge of methods is part of the knowledge base of teaching. Method serve as foil for reflection that can aid teachers in bringing to conscious awareness the thinking that underlies their action.
Based on freeman opinion the “how a method is implemented to the
classroom, is going to be affected not only by who the teacher is but also the students are, their and the teachers’ expectations of appropriate social roles, the
Every teacher and students are able to use several strategies or method to master the second language, especially vocabulary. Ever though every strategies has different principle and techniques but every strategy must be the seven characteristics such as:
a. Teaching language strategies refer to the effective procedures and technique s to master the language.
b. Some of teaching language strategies are able to be observed but some of them are not.
c. Teaching language strategies oriented toward the problem in the learning. d. Teaching language strategies has big contribution to the successful of the
learner.
e. Teaching language strategies are able to be repeated.
f. Teaching language strategies are able to be change and improved

Because based on Chapter II page 26 multiple meaning a ware new activity. It is a type of activity that depelops students awareness of word that may have more than one meaning.
Game is not only suitable for children but also for adults. And based on interview with English teacher and are students they fell with game easier to understanding about vocabulary, because within game can more enjoy and relaxed atmosphere.
Based on the chapter II page 26 game is one of activities which can help to create dynamic motivating classes. The reason is that learning takes place when the students, in relaxed atmosphere, participate in activities that require than to use what they have been drilled on.
“Untuk tugas menghafal kosa kata tidak saya berikan secara langsung,
namun melalui belajar dalam setiap pertemuan. Jika ada anak yang tidak tau sebuah arti kata maka mereka di minta untuk membuka kamus dan langsung
dibahas”. 10
For memorization task vocabulary not I give straightforward, but can through studying in each appointment. If there is child that doesn't know one word meaning therefore they at ask for to open dictionary and direct are worked through.
